Tea For Terror

Tea For Terror #36: Hamlet (1948) Featuring Ari Lehman

On this episode, host Andrew Graves and VERY special guest Ari Lehman (the very first Jason Vorhees) speculative whether tis nobler in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune, or sit and watch Lawrence Olivier’s classy horror flick Hamlet (1948). Together they muse on life death and the existential, and of course Friday the 13th (1980). Alas poor Jason, we knew him well…

Tea For Terror Episode 35: A Field in England (2013) Featuring Richard Glover

On this episode, host Andrew Graves and star of A Field in England (2013), Richard Glover, discuss that very film. Stuffing their gobs with mushrooms and going places they probably shouldn’t, the pair of them get to grips with Ben Wheatley, method acting, psychedelics, oh and the secret of the universe. You have been warned.

Tea For Terror Episode 34: The Naked Prey (1965) Featuring John Harrison

On this episode, host Andrew Graves, and guest John Harrison, get lost on the African veldt as they are pursued by tribesman who have few good intentions. The Naked Prey (1965), written, directed and starring Cornel Wilde, while not technically a horror film, does contain some of the most chilling death scenes ever put on camera, and it retains an intense, horrid dose of suspense often missing from other genre films of this era.  

Tea For Terror Episode 33: NYX TV Special Featuring James Whittington

On this episode, host Andrew Graves and guest James Whittington, discuss the many fine attributes of NYX TV. The free to air channel, one the finest in terms of horror content, prides itself on offering a glorious and eclectic schedule of old favourites, foreign delicacies and more obscure delights. Together, the pair discuss past and upcoming NYX featured presentations such as Cannibal Holocaust, City of the Living Dead, House by the Cemetery and Zombie Flesh Eaters. You have been warned.

Tea For Terror Episode 32: Night of the Demon (1957) Featuring Barbie Wilde

On this episode, host Andrew Graves and guest Barbie Wilde (Hellbound: Hellraiser II) spend a tense hour or so trying to pass the runes on to some other poor fool to free themselves from the claws of the oncoming nightmare. Night of the Demon (1957), directed by Jacques Tourneur and based on the short story by M.R. James, presents a dark tale of black magic, demonology and human failings. “It’s in the trees. It’s coming” You have been warned.

Tea For Terror Episode 31: Kiddie's Nightmare Fuel Special Featuring Dan Taylor

On the second of our Tea For Terror Specials, your host Andrew Graves and returning guest Dan Taylor, go back to bygone days to explore those childhood TV and movie traumas.

Tea For Terror Episode 30: Seconds (1966) Featuring Jez Conolly

On this episode, host Andrew Graves and guest Jez Conolly, fins themselves ‘upgraded’ by the mysterious company to end up rubbing shoulders with a deeply troubled Rock Hudson’. Together they explore John Frankenhiemer’s existential horror, Seconds (1966), a weird, disturbing and utterly brilliant American chiller. Devastatingly bleak and completely unmissable. “This may hurt a little”

Tea For Terror Episode 29: Jacob's Ladder (1990) Featuring Tim Dry

On this episode, host Andrew Graves and guest Tim Dry (Xtro, Return of the Jedi) hover between life and death to explore the nightmarish world presented in Jacob’s Ladder (1990). Directed by Adrian Lyne and starring Tim Robbins, this odd psychological thriller is as strange as it is disturbing “…according to this, you’re already dead” You have been warned.
